Sync with TextExpander touch 3.5:

Tap Save Snippets As… underneath Dropbox or iCloud Drive to sync your snippets with that cloud service. You may need to sign into your Dropbox account and allow TextExpander access if you choose Dropbox.

Select a location to store your snippets file.

On your second device, open TextExpander touch to Settings > Synchronization, choose Link to Snippets… under Dropbox or iCloud Drive, whichever you previously chose, and locate your snippet file.

Sync with Older versions

TextExpander 4, TextExpander touch 3.2.4 and earlier

While TextExpander 5 and TextExpander touch 3.5 support syncing with iCloud Drive and any Dropbox folder, older versions can only sync with Dropbox. If you want to keep newer and older versions in sync, you need to use the old style of sync.

On your Mac with v.5, open TextExpander to Preferences > Sync and check on Sync with TextExpander 4 and TextExpander touch 3.2.4 (Dropbox only).

On your iPhone and iPad open TextExpander to Settings > Sync Snippets. Scroll to the bottom and click on Compatibility sync.

When given the option, choose to Link to the snippets already saved to Dropbox.

Upgraders switching to new style sync

If you are upgrading to TextExpander 5 and TextExpander touch 3.5 you can use the new v.5 sync with any Dropbox folder or iCloud Drive.

Turn sync off on each of your devices. On a Mac open Preferences > Sync and click Don’t Sync. On iPad or iPhone open TextExpander’s Settings > Synchronization and tap Don’t Sync.
